A couple who were given the wrong baby by a hospital in El Salvador a year ago, have finally been allowed to travel home with the correct child. Rich Cushworth - who is British - and his wife, Mercedes - were only given a birth certificate for their son Moses a few days ago. They landed back home in Dallas, Texas this week where they have been speaking exclusively to our correspondent Matthew Price.

This happened to my mother with my brother. When they handed her the wrong baby she said she through a huge scene. They tried saying the same thing, that they were sure it was her baby. But she knew and she wasn’t having it

This has always been a fear of mine. Luckily the hospital I delivered both babies in doesn't have a nursery, but I still did NOT let them take my babies out of my eye sight until they both had on their ID bracelets that matched mine and their fathers. What a horrible and traumatic experience for all involved. I look at my 8 month old daughter and couldn't imagine the horror I'd feel if I was told today she wasn't my biological child. That hospital should be sued so hard!!!!!!

It almost happened to my mom when she gave birth to me. The hospital staff told my mom that the child was dead and my mom also argued because she saw me cry right after I was born then the doctor told my mom that I am healthy so the thing is my mom and the original mother of the child who was dead, has the same surname and the doctor approached the nurse and told that the dead baby wasn't me, so yeah it got fine right after.
